The bible talks about God's favor on our life and how we achieve it. We must first repent of our sins and surrender ourselves to Christ. We must live a life of obedience according to His will and desire Him above all else. When we do this and live a righteous life, the Lord bestows His favor on us. For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with a shield. Psalm 5:12 We prosper, we live in peace and joy, we receive multitude of blessings and are protected by His Spirit. One way to achieve God's favor, financially, is through our tithes and love offerings to our local churches and global ministries. This pleases the Lord for we are trusting Him, not our self. When we show we are a good steward of the blessings He has given us, He will trust us with more. Much given, much required, (Luke 12:28) means if we do right by His Word with little, He will trust us with more. When we love and treat His children the way He does, we find favor with Him. Living for God only is the most rewarding thing I have ever done. I firsthand have witnessed the power of His hands and the grace on my life when I chose to live to glorify Him and live with blessed assurance. He is an amazing Father who keeps His promises and does not disappoint. His love is all you will ever need. And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all he did to prosper in his hand. So Joseph found favor in his sight. Genesis 39:3–4
